Two Hot Air Balloons
In a vision, I suddenly saw two hot air balloons rising into the sky, and both balloons were engaged in a race towards Washington DC.
As I looked at the first balloon, I saw it was colored fully in red, which symbolized the Republican Party, yet I knew by the Spirit that it was also speaking to the new covenant; it represented the power of Jesus' blood rising over America.
The second balloon had a strange yet vibrant rainbow design which represented the Democratic Party; yet I also knew, again by the Spirit, that is spoke to the power of a counterfeit covenant which embodied a wicked, woke, and one-world order and agenda that was looking to take hold in the nation.
Now as both balloons began to rise, I saw a fierce and violent battle unfolding. A battle between good and evil was unfolding in the spiritual realm—righteousness clashing against the uprising of evil. This was about a confrontation between two altars rising: the altar of Baal versus the altar of Elijah.
Then I heard these words: "CLASH OF KINGDOMS. FOR A BATTLE RAGES WITH THE PRINCE OF THE AIR FOR FULL POWER AND DOMINION IN THE EARTH REALM."
(I felt it was prophetically significant that I was watching a hot air balloon race unfolding. This speaks powerfully to where the battle is unfolding for the destiny and birthright of nations. It's a battle in heavenly places, for our battle is not on ground level with flesh and blood but with the devil, who is "the prince of the power of the air," Ephesians 2:2.)
As I watched the race begin between the two hot air balloons, I noticed that both balloons were equipped with large burners, and the sound of the burners firing filled the air as flames were released, generating hot air to lift the balloons off the ground.
Then I heard these words: "THESE ARE THE DAYS OF COUNTERFEIT FIRE VERSUS TRUE FIRE. ONE FIRE BRINGS LIFE AND REDEMPTION; THE OTHER BRINGS DEATH AND DESTRUCTION."
Bulletproof
The race was in full swing, and I watched as the two hot air balloons ascended higher and higher into the sky, both swiftly making their way across the diverse landscape of the fifty states toward Washington DC.
Suddenly, I heard the loud sound of gunfire, and I knew it was an attack on the big red balloon. Bullets were relentlessly aimed at the basket and the balloon; the sharp and echoing sound was like that of a high-powered rifle.
These were shots from a skilled sharpshooter or sniper. These shots had precision. They were long-range shots, strategically targeting the balloon. But as the bullets struck, I watched them ricocheted off the basket and balloon. The resilience of the balloon and its protective measures became evident as it continued to rise higher, undeterred and untouched. The big red balloon proved to be virtually bulletproof!

Divine Protection and the Mighty Deliverance of a Nation
I knew by the Spirit that this spoke of the divine protection and preservation that comes from being under and warring from the place and position of covenant. The Blood speaks, and it speaks a better thing. The Blood covers and sets bold boundaries around our lives, making us, in essence, bullet proof against the weapons formed and fashioned against us. HALLELUJAH!
This also spoke powerfully of the days to come. The fire of the Spirit, the fire of His glory, will be a protective canopy over His remnant. His purified and sanctified vessels will be safely hidden and concealed in the basket of His divine presence, His perfect will and Kingdom purpose. It will be just like baby Moses, when Pharaoh sent out a decree which sought to kill all the babies. God raised up a mighty deliverer who was hidden in a basket in the bulrushes—a mighty deliverer whom He safely preserved from the death assignment of Pharaoh.
I prophesy that God is bringing forth a mighty deliverance of a nation in this hour of great battle for its destiny and birthright; a mighty deliverance through His mighty remnant of fearless deliverers, who will be protected and preserved in a blood-covered basket!
Arrows of God's Remnant Strike Force
Now I watched as the red hot air balloon continued to advance forward with great acceleration across the landscape, suddenly I could see the rainbow balloon reappear in my line of sight. Then I saw what looked like a fleet or a shower of fiery, silver arrows slicing through the air with deadly precision, coming toward the rainbow balloon. Again, I knew by the Spirit that the fiery arrows were the prayers of God's remnant strike force. The arrows were razor-sharp and imbued with potent, penetrating power. I watched as the arrows struck the thick skin of the balloon with a silent yet lethal force.
As the fiery arrows found their mark, I watched as the hot air within the balloon began escaping rapidly, causing the balloon it to lose both momentum and altitude. I looked again, and in the basket below, I saw frantic attempts being made to increase the flame from the burner in a desperate attempt to prevent the balloon from descending and plummeting to the ground. However, the relentless barrage of fiery arrows just kept coming. Dozens, then hundreds and then thousands of arrows, pierced and penetrated the very wide expanse of the already compromised skin of the balloon which began to create more and more holes.
The once vibrant rainbow balloon began to develop large tears and ruptures, allowing even more hot air to seep out. With each passing moment, the balloon started to fall rapidly.
Warriors on the Wall, It's Time to Advance!
Now as I watched this unfold, I continued to pray fervently for the nation in tongues, and again I saw the red balloon. It was moving with even greater momentum and power, rising higher and racing toward the finish line.
I heard the Spirit say, "MY REMNANT MUST RISE, MY ECCLESIA MUST GOVERN, AND MY WARRIORS MUST WAR FROM A PLACE OF VICTORY. FOR THIS BATTLE IS A BATTLE FOR THE DESTINY AND BIRTHRIGHT OF NATIONS. SO DO NOT RETREAT; DO NOT SHRINK BACK IN FEAR. IT'S TIME TO ADVANCE, ADVANCE, ADVANCE! IT'S TIME TO STRIKE, STRIKE, STRIKE! IT'S TIME TO PURSUE, OVERCOME, AND RECOVER ALL IN THIS WAR!"

Please take note: At the end of this unfolding vision, I could see that the red balloon was still racing toward the finish line. I believe this means that the outcome of this battle is STILL ONGOING. The battle is raging. This means the arrows must continue to be released with precision, with accuracy, and with ferocity. In this critical hour, there can be no room for complacency or passivity. If the warriors are not on the wall shooting the fiery arrows and sounding the alarm, then the enemy gains an advantage.
It is imperative that we remain vigilant and alert in the face of the many dangers ahead of this race. We must be fiercely proactive in defending the walls of our nations and standing firm against every one of the enemy's ruthless and devious attacks. NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE ENEMY. Satan is an old and treacherous foe!
Now is not the time to falter or hesitate in the hour of battle, but to stand strong and united in the face of adversity. We must be fearless warriors, ready to fight for righteousness and to protect what God has entrusted to us. So let us rise up and face the great challenges ahead with courage and determination, knowing that together as the remnant of Christ we are stronger, empowered by His Spirit to overcome any obstacle and push back every demonic threat.
We must stay ready, we must stay focused, and we must stay strong. The battle is before us, and we must not back down!
Pure and Yielded Vessels
And lastly, for the sake of clarity, it is important to note that prophets are not called to make predictions based on personal preferences, political biases, or opinions. True prophecy must be free from human influence in order to carry the purity and power of God's message. Prophecy is speaking the will, heart, and mind of Christ in a given situation, even when the message God gives may be difficult to hear or deliver.
Prophets are called to embody purity and humility before God alone, without ever seeking to build a reputation or secure personal gain. To be truly used by God, a prophet must die to earthly desires and ego. They must be vessels yielded to His divine will!
